Language Arts

On a daily basis we will focus on several word work (phonics), comprehension, and writing lessons that coincide with the Fundations Journeys and WriteSteps programs. Throughout these lessons we will acquire and strengthen several skills including:

Decoding

Blending

Story structure

Narrative writing

Opinion writing

Character analysis

And much, much more!

 Additionally, children will be involved in guided reading groups. These reading groups will receive a book to share each night in their reading bags. You may see the same book several nights as we continue to boost our reading fluency and automaticity.
